FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is recommended to clean them by hand using a damp cloth to protect the integrity of the bungee lacing and shoe structure.
Do these come with standard laces if I want to swap them?
The 740 model is specifically designed with a bungee system; replacing them with standard laces is not supported by the manufacturer design.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The bungee lacing provides some flexibility, but New Balance shoes generally follow a standard width profile.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from durable polyester.
Are they appropriate for wet weather?
While the materials are durable, they are not marketed as waterproof, so they are best suited for dry or mild weather conditions.
Troubleshooting
Bungee laces feel too loose.
Ensure the shoe tongue is pulled up fully and that the foot is pushed back into the heel counter securely.
Surface stains on the polyester material.
Use a gentle soap solution on a soft cloth, dab the stain, and wipe clean with water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No complex setup is required; the bungee laces come pre-configured for a standard fit. If the fit feels too loose or tight, check that the tongue is centered properly against the foot. For maintenance, keep the polyester fabric clean by wiping away surface debris with a soft, damp cloth. Do not submerge the shoes fully in water or use harsh chemicals, as this may degrade the materials and the bungee lacing elasticity. Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the shape.
